As far as movie years go, my favorites are 1939 and 1957.  I will consider this for a while and then make a decision.

@Vandurath​   I personally would have had Shrek and Monsters Inc. on my 2001 list instead of Amelie or Spirited Away, but it was not a bad year for film.

I was actually thinking of putting Monsters Inc. instead of Spirited Away, and I'll probably do it now, when I think again.

I guess it was 2011-2013:

Three of my favorite TV series were running simultaniously:

Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones and Boardwalk Empire.

It was the first time, TV series had a big impact on me, such as movies.

This year would have been my third choice for movies.  Another favorite not on your list is "The Princess Bride."  Forgetting this film is "inconceiveable!!!!"
